Prima doorreis hotel
Pros:

Mooie kamer met dito badkamer. Zeer goede bedden. 2e nacht was plafondspot in toilet kapot. Op eigen terrein parkeren als je niet te laat aankomt. Kenteken bij receptie registreren voor gratis parkeren. Ontbijt inclusief maar wat kaas of vleeswaren ontbraken. Jammer ook dat voor de publiek ruimtes de tv alleen op nieuwskanalen stond. Dus geen voetbal. Op de kamer toch saaier.

Cons:

Ontbreken kaas/vleeswaren bij ontbijt. Aanbod diner ook beperkt.

Ok but unlikely to return.
Pros:

Staff were friendly. Room was clean and spacious.

Cons:

Mattress and pillow uncomfortable leading to a poor night's sleep.
Breakfast wasn't great. Staff were slow to respond in terms of clearing tables and restocking items and plates and cutlery. Food was ok but not great quality. Was a bit disappointed.

Pros:

Location was very good ,close to M4 although not sign posted very well.The only other criticism was the very poor choice of food e.g hamburger,salad or sandwich.The free breakfast was good except NO fried eggs which are a morning stable at breakfast time.Just one other small thing that irked me was not being to use CASH to pay for the small things e.g drinks at the Bar

Cons:

The limited food when arriving at the hotel after a long journey

Good size room for wheelchair user.
Pros:

The accessible room provided adequate space for a wheelchair. The hotel was close to the M4 and the local amenities that we planned to use. The hotel was quiet although there was some traffic noise outside.

Cons:

The breakfast area was quite small, chaotic and badly arranged. The plates for bread were at the opposite end of the room and it wasn't obvious which end to queue for the hot breakfast. Not easy for a wheelchair user to navigate. Clearing tables seemed to be left for the person on reception, who couldn't keep up with the demand.

Disappointing overnight stay
Pros:

It is located near major roads
Room was ok

Cons:

Parking spaces were cordoned off - why?
No meals available in evening as no chef
Breakfast was chaos. No tables available as they hadn't been cleared
Lift shuddered every time we used it and we thought it was going to break down

Good location & friendly staff.
Pros:

The staff are friendly.
The room is clean.
The location is good.
Parking is free.

Cons:

The breakfast selection is good, however, there is not enough table to cater all the guest and also not enough staff to clean the dirty tables, so other guests can also use.

We stayed there to get good sleep and get refreshed in the morning. But had issues in both of them
Pros:

Very good location and breakfast was good.

Cons:

Water pressure on the shower was very poor that we couldn't use the shower itself. Air-conditioned fan blades were not moving at all and was pointing/hitting straight on my face all through the night.
